USCG safety broadcast for the Cumberland River
I got off 1 boat below Cairo this morning and am now on 1 above Louisville. Just before I got off we got an unschedualed marine broadcast stating that the USCG Captain of the Port had established a "Safety Zone" between mile 0 and mile 300 and something. This safety zone is closed to all rec. traffic untill further notice. I knew there were several folks planning trips so I called Cane Pole and asked him to make the post on the main board while I was inroute to the boat I'm on now.
Now with that said I don't believe that includes the bays but I could be wrong. You can google the USCG in Louisville and get a number to call and find out. If I get a chance I'll call and find out.
